Was it half life 2 where their source repo got corrupted and they lost almost everything but luckily someone had pirated it, or taken it home or something and they managed to retrive a lot of it

I have a feeling that the loss of Fallout 76 isn't really that big.

Why do they call it Fallout 76?

Because it shits the bed, deletes itself, and 26 GB of random other data. :newlol:

Hi! I'm awkward.
Forget the no text rule. We should bring back the mega rule, aka post a picture along with your dumb comments. It's not that hard. Just pick something amusing. Half the people here will say you're dumb and not funny no matter what you pick, so don't bother putting too much thought in to it.

I know that was basically the story to Toy Story 2

Also Myth 2: Soulblighter, when uninstalled, would kill the whole directory it was installed in

Someone ran /bin/rm -r -f * on Toy Story 2's main server when it was in production. Pixar ex-employees tell stories about watching on-screen assets disappear one by one as they were working until someone finally pulled the plug on the hardware.

The server backups either were corrupt or not backing up properly in the first place, so Pixar was very close to scrapping the whole project and starting again (which would have taken 30 people over a year) when someone remembered an employee on mat leave had been secretly given a hard drive with the show's entire assets to work on at home once a week. This saved the film

This was pre Disney acquisition, so it's something that could have sunk Pixar completely.

The godawful CGI movie Foodfight! had a similar problem when the hard drives went missing (the director claims the were stolen) but they were never recovered and they had to start over from scratch, and the film was subsequently released almost a decade late.

The original trailer was pretty bad but the final trailer with the redone animation was even worse

The more I learn about older Catholic doctrine, rituals, and apocrypha, the more I wonder if I would have stayed in the Church if that kind of stuff was still around.
As a Catholic medieval studies major, I can vouch for this

Facebook Aunt posted:

Like Limbo. If Original Sin exists then even newborn babies are sinners. And if all sinners go to hell, then newborn babies that die go to hell. Maybe stillbirths and miscarriages, if they have souls (some think you don't get a soul until your first breath). Catholics have baptism take place shortly after birth which is supposed to be some sort of patch that keeps tiny children saved but not saved saved until they reach the age of understanding and can get for real saved. But still, some babies die before that happens. Which would leave tiny infants in eternal conscious torment for the Original Sins they inherited . . . which is an uncomfortable theological position. But obviously they can't go to heaven either. So a long while back the catholics invented Limbo, a place where unbaptised babies could go for an eternity of bliss and isolation. Then a few years back the pope said Limbo probably doesn't exist, we don't know what happens to the babies but we hope for mercy.
Dante put unbaptized babies (and possibly children below the age of reason, so about age seven) in the same Limbo as the great pagans of antiquity and the feeling was that these people would never experience the true joy of knowing God but they didn't realize it so they were still pretty happy. There's a pretty understandable dislike against putting people into eternal torment who didn't really have a choice in the matter.

Doesn't the Old Testament say that the whole afterlife situation is either "Everyone is stone cold dead until judgement day" and/or "There is a sort of afterlife but it isn't very good except if you're like a prophet or a martyr something in which case it's alright I guess"?

Otherwise judgement day seems pretty pointless if people have already been judged.

I think the Old Testament says that you either go to heaven or just quit existing. It also isn't "heaven" the way Christianity teaches about it. Like you either earn your way into the Kingdom of God or head off to oblivion.

Anything involving the apocalypse is from Revelation, which is in the New Testament.

The Torah doesn't actually say anything explicitly about life after death, only an understanding that this isn't the end. The concept of hell as we have it is basically entirely the Christian idea. At worst there's a "cleansing" period for your soul to earn the right to cleave close to God but no eternal torment or anything like that. There's also no concept that only Jews get rewarded or only non-Jews get punished, there's just the basic commandments for all to follow so if you don't kill, rob etc you're all good for Judaism.

Here's a kinda funny pic I took yesterday:

Early Christians were convinced that Jesus was returning very soon to destroy the Romans and usher in the messianic age, so they were very into the idea that the afterworld was actually just this world only perfected. To that end they were careful about entombing their dead so that when that happened the bodies would still be around to be reborn into eternal life. Until then it was assumed that everyone’s souls went to Sheol, a place very much like the Ancient Greek underworld, to wait around for their return. Only after it became obvious that Christ wasn’t coming back any time soon did they start thinking of stories explaining where we go and what we do there after we die.
